24. GRAVITY

25. Warm Up:  What is acceleration?  What causes an object to accelerate?  How might acceleration relate to gravity?

26. Acceleration 1.Acceleration is a change in direction or speed of an object. 2.Acceleration is caused by a net force acting on an object.

27. Does this data show acceleration? What is causing the velocity to change? What is the shape of a velocity: time graph for this data?

28. Position is changing at a NON-CONSTANT rate, Velocity is changing Velocity is changing at a CONSTANT rate, acceleration is constant Rate of acceleration is CONSTANT- 9.8 m/s 2 on Earth

42. Warm Up:  Make sure you have the value of “g” written in your notes.  Notes can be used on the Quest tomorrow. Now that you know the acceleration due to the force gravity is 9.81 m/s 2 … I bet you are wondering where that number comes from, right?

43. Astronauts Feather and Hammer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4_rceVPVSY

44. See how “g” applies Do you weigh the same on Earth and the moon? Why is that? ? ?

46. Mass and weight are different- I’m going on a moon diet

47. Putting it all together… 1.What 3 variables affect gravitational force? 2.What is Newton’s Law of Gravitation? 3.What is Newton’s second law? You may calculate the gravitational force on the astronaut on the Earth given the Following: Radius of the Earth 6,371,000 m Mass of the Earth 5.974 x 10^24 kg g = 9.81 m/s/s

48. Putting it all together… Why is it that the weight of the astronaut changes? What 2 variables affect gravitational force? What is Newton’s Law of Gravitation? What is Newton’s second law? You may calculate the gravitational force on the astronaut on the moon given the Following. Radius of the Earth 6,371,000 m Radius of the Moon 1,737,100 m Mass of the Earth 5.974 x 10^24 kg Mass of the Moon 7.347 x 10^22 kg Write it on you whiteboard. Show your math. g = 9.81 m/s/s g = ?

49. Calculate weight (force due to gravity) in the following problems by using the equation: weight = mass x free-fall acceleration w = m g g (on Earth) = 9.8 m/s 2 (1) ALWAYS write the equation (2) plug in the numbers and units, (3) give the answer with the correct units. 1. A physical science text book has a mass of 2.2 kg a)What is the weight on the Earth? b)What is the weight on Mars (g = 3.7 m/s 2 ) 2.If the textbook weighs 19.6 newtons on Venus, What is the strength of gravity on Venus? 3.Of all the planets in our solar system, Jupiter has the greatest gravitational strength. If a 0.5 kg pair of running shoes would weigh 11.55 newtons on Jupiter, what is the strength of gravity there? 4.If he same pair of shoes weighs 0.3 newtons on Pluto, what is the strength of gravity on Pluto? 5.What does the pair of shoes weigh on Earth?
